Hi Harry,
Mixxx is a cross-platform application (Linux, MacOS, Windows).
Is ctrla also a cross-platform library ?
If this is not the case, it is a show stopper IMHO.
As far as I can see, it only seems to be documented under linux.
Regards,

Hi All,
First of all - this is my first post to the Mixxx-devel list, so a
brief intro is in order;
I'm Harry van Haaren, developer of the OpenAV audio software, bit of a
music/tech/linux head :)
I've recently been working on improving controller support in Linux
audio land, in particular
what I call "modern USB HID" controller devices (think DJ controllers
like Akai/NI/Abletons range).
I've developed the Ctlra library as OpenAV, which provides access to
these hardware devices
on Linux. The library allows hotplug and various other "advanced"
features like accessing
screens on devices.
I'd like to integrate Ctlra into Mixxx - to provide access to hardware
currently not available
to Linux users, and also to provide hotplug support to those
controllers. I've created a blueprint
on Launchpad[1], and written an introduction on Ctlra and how I
propose to integrate it in Mixxx[2].
Finally, there is a documentation page on what Ctlra itself achieves
here[3], and the source is here[4].
If you have an interest in hotplug of controllers, controller support
or hardware on Linux,
do have a read of the wiki page and others, and I'd appreciate your
input on the ideas!
Thanks for all your efforts on Mixxx so far, onwards and upwards!
